What a race, I thought it was all over when Vettel spun, I thought the strange predictions of what Alonso required were to come true, but the fightback through the field from stone last was pretty special. I didn't understand the decision that RB made to go on dry tyres, strange as all they had to do was cover Alonso, thought they shot themselves in the foot but another strong drive from Vettel sorted that out.

Hulk was penalised for collision with HamiltonVettel was not penalised for collision with Senna

thoughts?

Indeed, it's pathetic. Vettel's lack of spacial awareness there - did he turn in without even looking? - is the sort of thing people have harped on at Grosjean for all year and it took out two other drivers. It should have been investigated at the very least.

Stupid charge? ON the so-called racing line, and NOT drifting out at all? While Vettel came from outside the "racing line", cutting over to the apex, and then there was contact? I don't care that Vettel didn't get a penalty for that, however, no way that one is going to be pegged on Senna.

And, as someone posted earlier, race control did look into the issue, and apaprently, the yellow on the tv image was simply reflection from the pirelli boards at the side of the track.

Just seen it on Sky. They were flashing. All 6 of them.

Was waiting to post until I'd seen the video again. Disgraceful from the FIA. He clearly passed Kobayashi under yellows. There was one shown prior to the move, one while alongside and a further four after. The only slippery track flag was shown three corners earlier and was itself followed by a green light (which was followed immediately by the first of the six yellows down the straight).

No question about it that he overtook under yellows. Can't wait to hear how the FIA wiggle out of this one...

Sigh... once againThe first ones (around pico de pato) were flashing.Then, before getting on for the final uphill "straight", at the corner, there was a green light.Then, the other "yellow" were not flashing between yellow and "off", as the ones before... Go and watch the reply again... They were not flashing.

One of the lights on was green even sky said that. I am not even sure why lights are on. There was no car spun or anything.

No they weren't. They had yellows out in the middle sector (along with red/yellow flags) but at the bottom of the hill there is clearly a green LED, then up the hill the LEDs are NOT flashing, 1000% they are not and if you think they were your either blind or stupid, frankly. Plus on the left hand side on the way up the hill there is a red/yellow flag.

Jesus, my head is going to go through a wall at this rate. It was a legimate over take, do you not think Koba would of been straight on to the radio if it wasn't legit? Or Sauber wouldn't have got straight on the phone to Charlie?

The only thing is that Senna did overtake 2 other cars by braking so late so you could say it was too optimistic.

What an exhausting race. First of all, well done to Red Bull Racing and Vettel! Big congrats!

-Button wins, easy job just cruising to the finish. I think the dynamic between him and Hamilton on the different slicks, was interesting; Button faster on the options at the start, Hamilton faster on the primes. Huge shame for Hamilton getting punted off by Hülkenberg! Worst way to end the season, 'cause it would've been so nice to end it with the win I believe he was on course to get.

-Good job by both Ferrari drivers today. Creative work from Massa riding shotgun for his team-mate. Alonso did all he could, but it wasn't enough.

-Hülkenberg drove so well, and was so impressive, untill he made that horribly idiotic mistake, getting too ambitious. Not only did he wipe out Hamilton, but he also cost McLaren second in the CC.
Di Resta's race was almost the opposite of his team-mate's, but he was decent in the early parts.

-Vettel.... wow, what a crazy day for him! Smacked up car, ended lap one last but then fought through. That took a lot of composure. Impressive. His team even made it harder for him putting him on the wrong tires.
Apart from the crash, Webber's race was also chaotic, and he did a good job.

-Nice that Schumacher could bow out with points, but he was hopelessly slow in the wettest part of the race, towards the end. Not a race to remember really.

-Probably the worst race of the year for Räikkönen, but he was at the mercy of his car not putting enough heat into the tires I believe. What happened with Grosjean? Did he get help spinning?

-Great effort from Petrov, netting Caterham that very important and decisive 10th in the CC.

Before the race started, I said it is in a way, nice that the season is over. When your interest goes so far as it does for us here, it's nice to get a break, but now I dread thinking about the long wait till the 15th of march next year.

We've seen these incidents a million times and everyone knows you can argue both ways but the fact is watch Raikkonen jump out of the way, Vettel got involved in a crash and is therefore at least 50% to blame, he didn't avoid it well enough. He reminds me a lot of Prost in that he's not amazingly fast he just does enough and things fall in his lap. The other 2 cars went out and surprise surprise Vettel's car is ok.
